looking for game I used to play when I was young

Hey, Im looking for a game I used to play when I was young. All I remember is when it first started up there was a star in the sky around a ocean i think.The main character was a monk sort of dude and he walked around looking for something(cant remember)He talked to pirates in a bar..There was a castle or house that he found tapestries in.The game took place at night around an ocean and cliffs... If anyone knows what it might be I would appreciate it..Thanks

Is there any way I could _legally_ get or buy the old Monkey Island games? Are they sold anywhere? Or are they just AWare now?

Yeah, all they have is Curse of MI and Escape from MI, but the other two are not there, that I can see.

I think she's talking about Lucas Games' LOOM. 1990. Actually I'm pretty sure :)
